🚨 45 MINUTES UNTIL TALK WITH NURSE GINGER!
Tonight:
⚖️ WHY DOES MY WEIGHT KEEP GOING UP AND DOWN?
We're talking about:
💧 Water weight
🧂 Sodium
🍝 Carbohydrates & glycogen
🩸 Hormonal changes
🚽 Digestion & bowel movements
🏋🏽‍♀️ Exercise
⏰ Time of day
🔥 And the BIG question: Did I actually gain FAT?
Mama Bobby asked the question.
Tonight Nurse Ginger is giving her the FULL answer. 😂💜
LIVE — 7:30 PM

Worked out yesterday and somehow weigh MORE today? 🏋🏽‍♀️👀
Don't automatically panic.
A challenging workout stresses muscle tissue, and the recovery process can involve temporary inflammation and fluid shifts.
Your scale doesn't know the difference between:
body fat
water
food in your digestive tract
waste
glycogen and its associated water
It just gives you a NUMBER.
That's why one weigh-in doesn't tell the whole story.
Tonight we're breaking that number apart.

Here's one reason the scale can jump that people don't always think about: CARBS. 🍞🍝
Your body stores carbohydrate as glycogen, mainly in your muscles and liver.
And glycogen is stored along with water.
So after eating more carbohydrates than usual, the scale may rise partly because your body is holding more glycogen and water.
That isn't the same thing as suddenly gaining several pounds of fat.
We're talking about what else can move that scale tonight at 7:30. 🩺

The scale went UP. Did you gain fat? 👀
Last week Mama Bobby asked me:
“Why does our weight go up and down?”
I gave y'all the short answer Friday, but this deserves a whole conversation.
Because you can be doing everything “right” and still wake up 2–3 pounds heavier than yesterday.
That does NOT automatically mean you gained 2–3 pounds of body fat.
So Tuesday night we're breaking down what's actually inside that number on the scale—and why it can change so quickly.
Talk With Nurse Ginger Tuesday — LIVE at 7:30 PM. 🩺💜

Question: Are you an every-day weigher or an I-don't-want-that-scale-ruining-my-morning person? 😂

Before Monday ends:
There is a difference between being misunderstood and being wrong.
Sometimes you should listen, apologize, learn and make it right.
And sometimes you've explained yourself enough.
Wisdom is learning the difference.
Sleep well. Tomorrow we keep going. 💜

One thing about getting older…
I have officially retired from several unpaid positions:
😂 Director of Keeping Everybody Happy
😂 Manager of Other People's Opinions
😂 Chief Explaining Officer
😂 President of “But What Are They Gonna Think?”
The benefits were TERRIBLE anyway.
Which position are you resigning from? 😂👇🏽

You can spend years trying to convince somebody:
“I really am a good person.”
“I really did mean well.”
“I really have changed.”
“I really am capable.”
And one day you realize—
the people who genuinely know you don't require a presentation.
Keep becoming who you're becoming.
You don't need everybody in the audience to clap. 💜

Monday question:
What's something you used to feel like you had to explain about yourself—but you don't anymore?
Mine might be why I say NO. 😂
I used to think “no” needed a paragraph, supporting documents, three witnesses and a closing argument.
Now?
No.
Look at all that free time I just created. 😂
Your turn. 👇🏽

Some of us are exhausted because we're still trying to prove ourselves to people who already decided how they feel about us.
You keep explaining.
Keep showing them.
Keep hoping they'll finally see your heart, your growth, your intentions.
Baby, stop auditioning for a role in somebody else's opinion of you.
Everybody doesn't have to understand you for your life to still make sense.
What could you stop explaining today? 💜
